I opened this page in a new tab along with a few other articles I meant to read. After a few seconds, the page title started flashing "Don't forget this" at me. Is this a new way to avoid tab abandonment? I'm not normally one of those people who immediately closes a page that annoys me, but holy shit that was jarring. https://www.dropbox.com/s/a4i3yhsg9jpobhj/Screenshot%202017-...

I thought it was clever. Hadn't seen it done before but I'm sure they weren't the first. I definitely agree this will get annoying very quickly if this catches on.

I also hadn't seen the "Someone from $location recently ordered #item" as a popup. Interesting twist on social validation. Saw it on this page https://www.retropatents.com/collections/all
